Do you think a secret service agent--when he sees a raised firearm--waits until the firearm is discharged before he takes action against the wouldbe shooter? No he does not. Guaranteed.

Do you think comparing a government agent seeing a gun raised to a political rally opponent holding a tomato can be compared logically? Really?

Point is, the secret service agent is acting lawfully....the assaulter of the tomato-holder would not be. Hence Trump's offer to pay for the legal fees of anyone that assaults on his behalf.

You are wrong. See post #147.
